Debate tonight! I hope President Obama is spending the day practicing how to say “That is simply not true!” in a firm, yet presidential tone. Obama needs to assertive without coming off as being too aggressive. In other words, in the eyes of Fox News’ Dr. Keith Ablow, Obama needs to come off as just somewhat demented. This will be a “town hall” type event in which audience members will ask the candidates questions. Mitt is going to have a tough time relating to people… or at least to 47 percent of them.
When Mitt Romney says his record in Massachusetts shows that he was bipartisan, he’s lying. In fact, he was a “severely” partisan governor. As Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt literally put up a velvet rope to keep people from walking into the governor’s offices. Was this guy running Massachusetts, or Studio 54? As Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt issued over 800 vetoes—and 707 of them were overridden. So he wasn’t just a roadblock, he was a totally ineffective roadblock. At the end of Mitt’s term as governor, he had an unfavorable rating of 65 percent! Admittedly, Mitt was not a good fit for Massachusetts... but he’s an even worse fit for the United States of America.
Paul Ryan has been caught totally faking a photo op of him washing pots and pans at a soup kitchen. Paul Ryan stopped by the soup kitchen for 15 minutes on his way to the airport—after it had closed, and after all the cleanup had already been done. They’re just lucky it wasn’t Mitt—he would have shut the place down and moved it to China. The president of the organization in charge of the soup kitchen said “They did not have permission. They got one of the volunteers to open up the doors.” Is there a better metaphor for how Romney and Ryan want to treat the American people? Romney and Ryan want to get in by tricking us into opening the door—and then they want to do a bunch of stuff under the guise of helping people that only really benefits them!
Rudy Giuliani says that Mitt Romney “should be exploiting” the tragedy in Benghazi for political gain. Rudy, are you saying that from here on out, everything Mitt says should just consist of “a noun, a verb, and Benghazi”?

The Senate Judiciary Committee has advanced a so-called comprehensive immigration plan. And, as usual, Democrats conceded to Republican demands in the name of compromise. Over the last five days, the Judiciary Committee members considered over...

For over a week, Republicans have refused to focus on anything but so-called scandal. And, it turns out, that's exactly the way they want it. On Thursday, the Heritage Foundation, a prominent conservative think tank, sent a letter to...
A new CNN poll shows Obama's favorability rating at 53 percent. That's up from 51 percent in April, and up from the 51.1 percent from the poll that really counted last November. Like before the scandals, 45 percent of people disapprove of the...
Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives have made their point – they hate Obamacare. And, just in case anyone didn't get the message the first 36 times they made that point, they're about to waste even more taxpayer...

It seems that the Republicans won't stop until their attacks over Benghazi are as vicious as the attack in Benghazi. The Republicans would have you believe that the Obama administration altered the talking points on Benghazi out of political...
